Subject: [xsl] Selectively convert Attributes to child Elements From: The Web Maestro <the.webmaestro@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 18 May 2009 14:18:26 -0700 |
NOTE: I had to repost from a separate email address. My apologies if you are seeing this again. I want to transform an XML document, and selectively convert attributes to child elements (some but not all attributes). These are the attributes I'm trapping: <xsl:for-each select="@title|@displaytitle|@description|@catname|@prefix|@text"> PROBLEMS: The current INPUT XSL file (which I found & tweaked from http://www.biglist.com/lists/lists.mulberrytech.com/xsl-list/archives/200011/ msg00567.html) doesnt output the ROOT element, and currently strips all attributes (it only outputs the parent element if it strips the attribute). With the exception of the above attributes being output as child elements, I want to preserve the current XML document. INPUT XML: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <buckets siteid="mysiteid" version="1.0"> <bucket priority="4" bucketid="12348" title="Sports" displaytitle="Sports" link="/sections/sports/"
